Distributed acoustic sensing (das) data analysis ecosystem
Hardware system build and testing
The Colorado School of Mines is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow in Computational Seismology for an 18.7-month position (with a potential extension) focused on developing an edge-computing framework for seismic event monitoring. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in a relevant field, strong Python skills, and experience with large seismic datasets. The role includes research publication, collaboration with partners, and mentoring students
Job Summary
The fellow will develop a Python-based edge-computing framework integrated with the Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) Data Analysis Ecosystem, build and test the hardware system in both lab and field settings, and optimize algorithms for real-time performance.
Beyond core development work, the fellow will publish research, prepare technical reports and proposals, present findings, and help mentor students and collaborators.
Colorado School of Mines offers a robust portfolio of benefits for all employees, including flexible health and dental care options, generous sick/vacation time, and a fully vested retirement plan.
